i just regrease the fork by taking out the lower fork and i use slick honey instead of the Prep-M stuff. does that means i have to take the fork apart everytime i want to regrease it, cause i want to stick with the slick honey and the slick honey wouldn't fit thought the microlube holes.thanks
Well, if you want to stick with the Slick Honey than you...AndyH

...either need to purchase Slick Honey in a tube to fit on your grease gun (I have no idea if it's offered for sale like that, I have a "tub" of Slick Honey), or try to refill an empty grease-gun container with Slick Honey (not sure how you'd do this, but you might want to give it a shot).

Otherwise, I guess you'll need to disassemble the fork when you want ot regrease it if you have your heart set on using Slick Honey.
Tried the NEW PrepM? It's way better....chris2fur

It's very close in formulation to Slick Honey. Just look for the Motorex logo on the tube and you'll know you have the right stuff. It's no longer dark green. It's fairly transparent and works great. It's already set to go with the grease gun, so it would be hassle free. If, however, you have tried the new formulation and don't like it for some reason, just pretend you never saw this post.
